Ronnie and Larry,
Please accept deepest sympathy from all of the Ragland family. Growing up in Woodlawn Baptist was such a wonderful time. I remember your mom and dad well. May God comfort you now and in the days to come.

At times like this words can only mean so much. I just happened to pull up the local paper and checked the obituaries. Your Mom and Dad, as well as you boys, were so much a part of my youth and growing up in Hopewell and at Woodlawn Baptist. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during your time of bereavment. I often tell the tales of youth with fond memories of the good times our familes and friends shared. Over the years we may have grown apart but the memories we made and shared will remain forever. Unfortunitly, the passing of parants is just another reminder of the many milestones our own journey through life must pass. God's blessings on all of you.
